Paul Tierney from Lancashire has been selected to referee Tuesday's evenings League Two match at Edgar Street where Bournemouth will be the visitors.
As far as is known Hereford United have not met up with Tierney in the past.
This season is the first time Tierney has officiated at League level. Last season he was in charge of Conference matches but also was an assistant referee in the Premiership.
To date this campaign he has been the man in the middle at five games. So far he has dispensed five yellow cards but kept his red ones in his pocket.
